Lazy loading of KVSessionExtension

- call cleanup_sessions on first kvstore access
  this allows to run cmdline actions without redis (and makes it faster)
- Allow development using DictStore by setting REDIS_ADDRESS to the empty string in env
- don't sign 64bit random session id as suggested by nextgens
